Jane, I turned 60 in Sept., I’m a former newspaper columnist now strategic communications consultant, mom, stepmom, dreamer–I love your work and your decision to take this amazing journey. After discovering your blog and spending a wonderful chunk of time immersed in catching up, I’m so inspired by what your doing and discovering. It’s a vision I’ve had for my future, so I can’t wait to share your experience. If you want to meet some more great folks in WY & MT, let me know. Be well, stay safe and relish this incredible freedom!

I have no idea what I’m doing up at 1 AM but I am so I’ll take this opportunity to offer a suggestion ~ make a request ~ for the very beginning of your journey. Record your thoughts, like a stream of consciousness from the minute you are alone in the car . . . said your last good bye, waved your last wave . . . actually on your way. If it were me, I know my thoughts would be going six ways to Sunday . . . I hope you’ll share with us what yours are.

I hopy Finding Your America is everything you want it to be . . . and then some. L L

I feel almost guilty. We’re going on this great adventure with you and WE don’t have to pack!
I’m enjoying the comments by those who post.
I concur with all that they write. I’d like to add this even though is has been written. As a 58 yr old who used to pick up and go on a whim, I now have the dream come true of doing it again, just a bit differently. I love your title “Finding My America”. I think we all want to find it. You are going to be our trail blazer and actually hit the road and do it. What a concept.
I’m using your blogs as my frame of reference with the GM’s you’ll be traveling in. I know I want an American car and I know I DONT want to hear how great they are from a car salesmen or TV commercials. Thank you GM for your generosity and wisdom. After all, women are the number one consumers in America.
I’ll keep a light on in the window for you when you’re passing through Arizona. I may hold you hostage. I have a punch list of so many people from all walks of life I can keep you busy for a month! Let us know if you hit a state with no contacts. We’ll rally and find the perfect fit for you, for us, to interview.
This is newsworthy stuff. What do ya know. Real News for a change!
Happy Trails.Do we need seat belts too?

I’m thrilled to read that you’ll have new wheels for your journey as you find your America, as you help us find it with you.
I see you’ll be in Arizona. Here’s hoping you stop here, meet us and hear our stories. As a mother of three, a grandmother of two, your story about your daughter, Elisabeth, prompted me to phone my adult daughters; just to hear their voices. Only a mother’s heart knows, yes? Thank you for that.

Well Jane, have a great trip. I will be following you all the way. I am looking forward to reading your stories “of life in America”. A fresh and scintillating telling of stories not yet been told, and creating new ones of your own.

Wish you all the best and stay safe.

All the best.
